Hello,
I have a user who runs two or more filemgr's simultaneously, on different
clients, displayed on one server. Under Openwindows 2.0, SunOS 4.1.1, he
used
filemgr -Wb 0 200 200 ...
for one to give it a distinctive background colour, so that he can tell
them apart.
The Openwindows 3.0 version of filemgr overrides his specified colour
for the background with white. Foreground colour changes do work, however.

This happens with filemgr on machines running SunOS 4.1.2 and 4.1.1

I can't find 'install_filemgr' mentioned in the man page. Anyone have a fix?
Thanks,
--
